If he is 23 he is quite capable of making his own mind up and if he was looking for support from me as his parent I would give it unreservedly. If I didn't agree with his decision I would still give him the support he needed, but would tell him that I had misgivings about his choice so may feel I needed to keep some distance between me and his wife for a little while. The one thing you must nt do is give advice that he hasn't asked for - especially if it is advice against following his heart - he won't thank you for it.

I would tell him I love him but that he was being stupid. guys are geneticaly programmed to have sex with anyone they can empregnate, girls are geneticaly programmed to have sex with the best. it is unforgivable for a guy it is unforgivable for a girl.

He is a grownup and is in charge of his life. If he asks for your opinion, I'd tell him. But I wouldn't offer advice..it's his call. If he chose to take her back, I'd just be there if he needed me..if it didn't work out, I would never say anything to make him feel worse. For me personally, all it takes is one betrayal and that person is out of my life. But everyone is not the same. The child is a victim of whatever decision is made by the parents. Good luck to him! :)

at 23 he is capable enough of making a decision so he must have probably arrived at such a decision after weighing all the pros and cons so I would definitely respect and support his decision... but would definitely warn him that he is taking a risk.

Very supportive. What he does is his business...he doesn't need your approval...but he does need your blessing and support. Even a cheating wife has good qualities, that's why he married her. And there are two sides to the story. The most important reason is so that the child can have a mom and dad together...working positively towards complete trust and reconciliation. They all need support and no judgement and no advice from everyone around them.

Only be there for advice, if asked. Your children have to make their own way in life. Once they reach 18, your job is finished as a parent. I know you want to do more, but believe me, you will just be interfering into something that you cannot finish. Been there, done that. Stay in the shadows. Just make sure the 6 month old child is not abused in this process. The baby comes first.
